New Provider Registrations
(Packages from £2,000 or £3,000 +VAT).
Applying for registration with the CQC as a new provider of a healthcare service is a critical step. It marks the beginning of your ongoing relationship with the regulator, a relationship that will continue for as long as you provide your services. Understanding the implications of being registered and regulated by the CQC is essential.
By registering with the CQC, you commit to complying with fundamental standards. These include continuously demonstrating compliance through the five Key Questions: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-Led. Failure to meet these standards can result in enforcement actions, prosecutions, and even the loss of registration.
To successfully register with the CQC, you must undergo an interview. During this interview, you’ll need to demonstrate a practical understanding of these standards and how you intend to implement them in your services.
It is essential to determine whether you need to register with the CQC. Registration is mandatory if you are involved in any activities regulated by them. You can find comprehensive information in the document ‘CQC: The Scope of Registration (May 2022)’. If you are unsure whether your situation falls under the registration scope, we recommend reaching out to the CQC for clarification.
Existing Providers
Providers who are already registered with the CQC must maintain compliance as per The Care Quality Commission (Registration) Regulations 2009 (Part 3 & 4) (as amended) within the Health and Social Care Act. This includes the requirement to promptly notify the CQC of specific events, which include, but are not limited to:
- Changes to your Statement of Purpose.
- The absence and/or return of a registered individual for or after 28 days or more.
- Changes to registered details, including contact information; changes in Directors, Nominated Individuals, and/or Registered Managers; as well as the addition or cessation of a regulated activity.
We can assist in ensuring that the CQC is promptly and accurately notified of any changes to your service, in accordance with the necessary requirements.
